Description
The MD8391A performs AAL2 setting from the Node-B lub side; cell
setup is performed using a transmission signal meeting the 3GPP
test item requirements by using the NBAP control protocol. Each Tx
RF test measurement is performed by the MS8609A Digital Mobile
Radio Transmitter Tester.
Combining the MD8391A with the MG3700A Vector Signal
Generator supports testing of Node-B Rx characteristics. The
MD8391A sets the Node-B cell setup and receiver channel from the
Iub side. The uplink reference measurement channel (RMC) signal
output from the MG3700A is input to Node B. The PN pattern of the
RMC signal demodulated and decoded by Node B is received via
the Iub interface to measure the BER, permitting reference
sensitivity level tests conforming to 3GPP TS25.141 standards.
The MD8391A TE function supports the U-plane data test. The
MD8391A has the performance for evaluating user data of 3G/3.5G
W-CDMA systems, making it ideal for integration tests at final
production-line inspection.
